New Delhi: Seven Congress MPs from Telangana on Monday threatened to resign from the party as the protests intensified. The MPs said they will send in their resignations to Congress president Sonia Gandhi on Tuesday. If they do resign, it would make the UPA's position in Parliament even more precarious.

Meanwhile, the Ranga Reddy district court has admitted a petition against Finance Minister P Chidambaram and Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde. The PIL has accused them of cheating the people of Telangana.
